Table 1. The locations, instrument numbers and dates of operation of the TARFOX
AERONET network. Dates appear graphically in Fig. 1. At Wallops, #36 and #74 operated
simultaneously during July while instrument #4 replaced #36 on 15 August. #36 was
located at the main island site. #74 operated from the Lidar trailer approximately
3 km inland. The Hog Island instrument was moved to Cheritan because of hurricane
Bertha and remained there the rest of the summer. Dates of operation do not guarantee
good data collection. Clouds and other obstructions may interfere with sun or sky
measurements. Calibration is still preliminary (13 Sept. 1996).

Fig. 1 AERONET Cimel sun/sky radiometers were operational at the 5 sites above
during the indicated periods of time. The above data base consists of all data with
no evaluation made for cloudiness, cloud contamination or availability of inverted
size distributions and phase functions. As of this writing (13 Sept, 1996), most
of the instruments are still in the field and so checking of calibration has not
been completed.
